Description

Written for the sophisticated child within each of us, this beautifully depicted, award-winning collection includes three "young Gus LeGarde" stories set between 1964 and 1966. Inside you'll find:

1) Tremolo: cry of the loon - When eleven-year-old Gus LeGarde sees a girl fleeing an attacker in the dark Maine woods, he and his friends spend the rest of the summer hunting for her on horseback and in their rowboat, only to face the wrath of the nastiest villain ever to haunt the Belgrade Lakes.

"The birds, animals, people and scenery of Maine come to life in this novel. There's very real danger, honest emotion, sweet empathy and a lyrical voice that perfectly depicts the melody of scent and sight, as described through the emotions of a boy who will one day devote himself to music." - Sheila Deeth, author and reviewer

2) Don't Let the Wind Catch You - When Gus LeGarde befriends Tully, a cranky hermit in the woods who speaks to an Indian spirit, he doubts his sanity. But Penni rattles tin cups and draws in mirrors, and things change fast. Faced with long-buried family secrets and danger, Gus must summon courage beyond his years to survive.

"This isn't your average ghost story. Steeped in the rich history of Livingston County with graphic details of the area, this book transports you back to a gentler time and place, where you can relive the sweet days of endless summer, the adventures of childhood and the turning point towards adulthood. A great summer read." -Donna Paddon, Amazon reviewer

3) Voodoo Summer - Summer, 1966: For young Gus LeGarde, summertime usually means lazy days with his friends at Loon Harbor, his grandparents' fishing resort. But this year, everything changes when The Seven Whistles opens nearby, stealing Loon Harbor's guests. Events soon take a terrifying turn and an innocent boy is charged with a horrendous crime. Gus fights to exonerate him while uncovering dark secrets lurking at The Seven Whistles.

"This is not just a Scooby-Doo mystery that a few intrepid kids set out to solve. Murder, rape (including attempted incestuous rape), arson, oppression, and bigotry are major elements here, and Gus finds himself right in the thick of it." Linda O, Amazon reviewer
